Sorry, musicbrainz would be good if there were any good interface to enter data. A good part of my CDs is from independent Brazillian musicians. They have no data in musicbrainz and the interfaces to fill it are a pain in ...
What about the interface makes it difficult for you?

I understand the desire for consistency, but moderation can't be consistent because we don't see everything that gets posted here. Also, the comment you mention didn't exist when I replied to you.
Make sense, what do you think about negative meaning comments ?

I'd have to see specific examples to say anything meaningful.

#95That's a real pity, but they didn't stand a chance against musicbrainz: https://musicbrainz.org/ I ran a similar service for years (daz.com) and eventually shut it down because musicbrainz was not worth competing with though I think we did a better job of tying the links between the various bands by tracking artists from one act to another, also studio artists which made it quite nice for music discovery.
Just wanted to say the same. This is the last time to update all the clients relying on FreeDB to use MusicBrainz, it's about time.
If anyone is inconvenienced by the FreeDB shutdown and needs some short term service to get them by, while they work out what else to do, send us an email and we can see if we can open our FreeDB server.
